<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Brian Bucklan, post: 2604708, member: 76544&quot;]Came across this 16mm Ephesus issue a few days ago and for some reason had to buy it. The obverse with the bee is quite nice but the reverse is completely blank. There are numerous visible marks on the reverse showing that someone intentionally ground it flat, but left the obverse perfectly intact. The even patina on both sides certainly indicates it was done in antiquity. Just curious if anyone knows of a possible reason why this would have been done.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]569129[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
